摘要
The dislocated-blade Rushton impeller was designed in order to strengthen the performance of gas-liquid mixing of the standard Rushton paddle. The gas-liquid dispersion characteristics, mass transfer properties and gassed power consumption of those two impellers were investigated by gas-liquid stirring experiment under the condition of different stirring speed and air-flow rates. Bubble dispersion state in the stirring tank was observed by using visualization technology. The bubble diameter was obtained by the image processing method. The sodium sulfite test method was used to calculate the oxygen volumetric mass transfer coefficient. Results indicate that compared with the standard Rushton impeller, the areas in the axial direction influenced by the dislocated-blade Rushton impeller are broader, the bubble distribution in the stirring tank is more uniform and the bubble diameter is apparently smaller. In the certain range of control condition, the rates of mass transfer and gas dissolving are effectively improved by using the dislocated-blade impeller. At the same conditions, the power consumption and the aerated power drop after gassing of the dislocated-blade impeller are small. The performance of the carrier gas ability of the dislocated-blade impeller is strong, so it is more suitable to be applied to the gas-liquid stirring operation. © 2017, Zhejiang University Press.
